Spotlight Stealing Presence in HLE – Gen.G
In the opening match of the 2025 Regular Season between Gen.G and HLE, while the former is expected to triumph, the game turned into a one-sided affair, giving Gen.G a clear path towards the MSI 2024 championship. The match’s atmosphere was quite… dull and reflected Gen.G’s overwhelming dominance, leaving little room for excitement. Instead, a beautiful idol unexpectedly stole the spotlight during the match, who was none other than Minju from the ILLIT group.
Minju’s appearance was a delightful surprise for the HLE members. However, she had a tough day as the team faced a solid defeat, failing to maintain any advantageous position throughout the matches. In both games, HLE was pressured from start to finish, showing no signs of recovery.
Minju: “Bright Idol, One-Champ Katarina”
For those who may not know, Minju has a strong passion for League of Legends. Although her idol career keeps her busy, it doesn’t prevent her from dedicating time to climb the ranks. Notably, she is regarded as a “one-champ Katarina,” boasting over 700,000 mastery points with this champion.
In a recent game show alongside her ILLIT group members, Minju shared that she has been playing League of Legends since 2020, and her favorite champion is the Mid Lane specialist. The highest rank she has achieved so far is Diamond in South Korea.
Considering her average performance in each game of League of Legends, Minju has played Katarina in over 1,000 matches, achieving the mastery points mentioned above. It can be said that even in the professional League of Legends community, there are few players who can match Minju’s understanding and skills with this champion. Her fame has also helped her gain a significant fan base in the international League of Legends community.
